Yesterday, there were some errands we needed to do. My husband said I had to go with him because he didn't want to be a grown-up by himself. We do this to each other fairly often. We're like a two-person support group for adulthood-resistant adults.

Adulthood is when you start drinking red wine because you actually like it and not just because you want to appear smart or intellectual. I don't think I'll ever become an adult, I can't imagine growing to like wine, let alone RED wine.

Haha! I've been adult since I was like 17 then. I was raised in a red wine family though.

Though it's dependent upon the individual, adulthood ought to be achieved somewhere between 18 & 21 years of age.

I'd say somewhere around the mid to upper 20's. There is still a lot going on before that time like college, work, and experimentation, it's a different learning experience from high school, but not as hard as after college.

Most brains don't developed majorly until 25 ish, and that is probably where most people begin picking up ideas that will influence their lives for a long time.
